Prince George recorded 2,319 crime incidents in 2026, a drop from the 3,753 reported in 2025, though the 2026 figure reflects a partial‑year reporting window. Theft was the most common offence with 909 cases, followed by mischief (559) and theft from vehicles (389). Break‑and‑enter contributed 291 incidents, while auto theft and bike theft accounted for 122 and 49 cases respectively.
In 2026 Prince George recorded 2,319 reported incidents, covering all crime categories combined for the year to date. This adds to the city’s archive of 24,367 incidents across all years. The figure comes from the full‑archive calendar‑year dataset and excludes any 60‑day map window data. These numbers are presented without per‑capita adjustments and reflect incidents reported to the Prince George Police Service.
Because 2026 is still in progress, the 2,319 incidents represent a snapshot rather than a complete annual total. For reference, the full 2025 year recorded 3,753 incidents, a higher raw count, highlighting a downward shift in reported crimes so far this year.
The 2026 count of 2,319 incidents is based on a partially completed reporting period, so the total will likely change as the year progresses. In contrast, the 2025 full calendar year captured 3,753 incidents across the same categories. While the city’s overall archive stands at 24,367 incidents, the current year accounts for roughly nine and a half percent of that cumulative total. These figures reflect only incidents recorded by the Prince George Police Service and are not adjusted for population size.
2026 marks Prince George’s lowest annual total in the six‑year record, ranking sixth out of six years. Theft remains the dominant offence, accounting for 909 of the 2,319 incidents, while mischief (559) and theft from vehicles (389) round out the top three. The drop from 3,753 incidents in 2025 suggests a notable decline in reported crime so far this year, although the count is still provisional.
Prince George recorded 2,319 reported incidents in 2026. This figure aggregates all crime categories combined for the year to date and reflects data submitted to the Prince George Police Service. Because the 2026 reporting window is still open, the total will be updated as additional incidents are logged later in the year.
The 2026 count of 2,319 incidents is lower than the full 2025 total of 3,753, indicating a decrease in reported crime so far this year. Over the six‑year series, 2026 also ranks sixth out of six years, making it the smallest annual total on record. These trends should be interpreted with the partial‑year caveat in mind.
